Book Synopsis Market-Based Fiscal Discipline in Monetary Unions by : Mr.Morris Goldstein
Download or read book Market-Based Fiscal Discipline in Monetary Unions written by Mr.Morris Goldstein and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1991-09-01 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of market-based fiscal discipline posits that a government which runs persistent, excessive fiscal deficits will face an increased cost of borrowing and eventually, a reduced availability of credit, and that these market actions will provide an incentive to correct irresponsible fiscal behavior. This paper presents new empirical evidence on market-based fiscal discipline by estimating the relationship between the cost of borrowing and fiscal policy behavior across U.S. states. We find that U.S. states which have followed more prudent fiscal policies are perceived by the market as having lower default risk and are therefore able to reap the benefit of lower borrowing costs.

Book Synopsis Effects of the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) on Taxation and Interest Spending of National Governments by : Mr.Francesco P. Mongelli
Download or read book Effects of the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) on Taxation and Interest Spending of National Governments written by Mr.Francesco P. Mongelli and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1997-07-01 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the interest spending and taxation channels through which EMU could affect the public finances. It provides a framework for examining different views on a further narrowing of interest rate differentials. A model of Blanchard and Fischer is amended to analyze the two channels, and empirical evidence on the tax harmonization process is presented. The paper argues that “high-debt” and “high-tax” countries pursuing prudent fiscal policies could benefit the most from EMU: if monetary and widespread fiscal discipline are jointly established, interest rates could decline rapidly, while tax harmonization is likely to be gradual.

EAEPE Newsletter Buti and Franco present a series of interesting analytical information which should be read by as broad an audience as possible. . . the book is a good buy. László Csaba, Acta Oeconomica This book explores the origins, rationale, problems and prospects of the European fiscal policy framework. It provides the reader with a roadmap to EMU s budgetary framework by exploring its theoretical and empirical foundations, uncovering its historical roots and emphasising its supranational nature. The authors, who have been at the forefront of the academic and policy debate on economic policy in Europe, argue that fiscal policy has always been at the core of the EMU debate. The Maastricht criteria and the Stability and Growth Pact are the most contentious building blocks of EMU s institutional architecture: they have aroused heated controversies between academics and policymakers ever since their adoption. As EMU s budgetary rules undergo their first severe shock, Europe is still searching for its fiscal soul. The book s basic premise is that one cannot fully understand EMU s fiscal framework and the recent debate on its reform without placing them in a historical and institutional perspective and abstracting from the uniqueness of EMU, where sovereign countries retain a large degree of fiscal independence, and monetary policy is entrusted to an independent central bank with the overriding mission of maintaining price stability. Analysing all aspects of EMU s fiscal rules and institutions, this book will strongly appeal to students, academics and researchers of macroeconomic policy and European integration. Policymakers and fiscal policy experts at both national and international levels will also find the book to be of great interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper gauges the scope for market discipline and the effectiveness of the regional surveillance framework in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU). The paper finds that the responsiveness of sovereign bond rates to governments’ fiscal behavior in the regional financial market remains limited. In addition, the paper examines the effectiveness of fiscal rules and institutions in an environment where financial markets fall short of exerting a significant disciplining effect on governments.
Book Synopsis Revisiting the Economic Case for Fiscal Union in the Euro Area by : Mr.Helge Berger
Download or read book Revisiting the Economic Case for Fiscal Union in the Euro Area written by Mr.Helge Berger and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper makes an analytical contribution to the revived discussion about the euro area’s institutional setup. After significant progress during the euro crisis, the drive to complete Europe’s Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) had stalled, and the way forward will benefit from an in-depth look at the conceptual issues raised by the evolution and architecture of Europe, and the tradeoffs involved. A thorough look at the underlying economic issues suggests that in the long run, EMU will benefit from progressing along three mutually supporting tracks: introduce more fiscal risk sharing, helping to make the sovereign “no bailout” rule credible; complementary financial sector reforms to delink sovereigns and banks; and more effective rules to discourage moral hazard. This evolution would ensure that financial markets provide incentives for fiscal discipline. Introducing more fiscal union comes with myriad legal, technical, operational, and political problems, raising questions well beyond the remit of economics. But without decisive progress to foster fiscal risk sharing, EMU will continue to face existential risks.
Book Synopsis Toward A Fiscal Union for the Euro Area by : Céline Allard
Download or read book Toward A Fiscal Union for the Euro Area written by Céline Allard and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-09-25 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is on a highly topical issue and addresses a key policy issue for Europe—namely, reinforcing EMU institutional architecture along with the Banking Union. Some proposals have emerged in Europe, and it will be important to put out staff views on this issue. In that context, publication as an SDN is appropriate, given the high profile nature and relevance of the topic—much like the Banking Union paper done a few months ago.
Book Synopsis The Effects of the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU)on National Fiscal Sustainability by : Mr.Francesco P. Mongelli
Download or read book The Effects of the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU)on National Fiscal Sustainability written by Mr.Francesco P. Mongelli and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1996-07-01 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a methodology to analyze the responsiveness of fiscal sustainability to the “endogenous fiscal discipline” that will be strengthened by the EMU. This discipline arises in response to the harmonization of tax systems, the loss of control of current and prospective money financing, and the deepening of financial market-based discipline. The model used in this paper is a generalization of Blanchard’s (1984) model, in which the interest rate is determined endogenously. This provides the framework to analyze more features of the linkage between sustainability and endogenous fiscal discipline. This paper also presents a new intratemporal fiscal sustainability index.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estudia diversos aspectos de la contradiccion que se da entre el establecimiento de una autoridad monetaria centralizada y su coexistencia con autoridades fiscales descentralizadas, e incluso divergentes, entre los paises miembros de la Union Economica y Monetaria (UEM). Analiza el problema de la coordinacion de la politica fiscal y la propuesta del Informe Delors, y los efectos de los desequilibrios fiscales en un area de moneda unica y politica monetaria comun. Considera que ni la disciplina monetaria impuesta por un banco central europeo, ni la disciplina de mercado prevendrian la indisciplina fiscal y sus consecuencias, sino que serian necesarias sanciones especificas. Propone, como sancion mas eficaz, el establecimiento de una clausula de no entrada en la union monetaria. Contiene graficos, cuadros estadisticos y bibliografia. (pgp).

This book was released on 1990-08-01 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses key issues relating to the design and implementation of monetary policy in an emerging European economic and monetary union. Specific institutional proposals for transition to EMU are neither endorsed nor dismissed. In examining the goals of monetary policy, the paper explores the interrelationships among price stability, current account equilibrium, and exchange rate stability. Turning to the implementation of monetary policy, the issues addressed are: coordination versus autonomy, rules versus discretion, and the role of sterilized official intervention. Finally, the last part of the paper emphasizes the importance of fiscal discipline, and evaluates several alternative mechanisms for encouraging it.
